LEVIN METHODISM.

The quarterly meeting of the Levin Methodist Church was held in the Century hall, nineteen members being present. Rev. W. G. Blade presided and conducted the opening deovtional service. Reports from various branches of the church’s activities, disclosed the fact that satisfactory work was being accomplished. The financial aspect was viewed as being very praiseworthy. Slight deficiencies in some departments were outbalanced by the fact that during the quarter over £17(1 had been raised for various purposes, besides a creditable sum received towards the new church fund. The appointment of Mrs. E. Bott as foreign mission secretary received the unanimous sanction of the meeting. The appointment of a missionary committee to act in conjunction with the secretaries of home and foreign departments respectively, was left in the hands of the circuit stewards and the incoming minister of the circuits.
